Detailed explanation-1: -Canopy. This lush layer is made up of trees standing anywhere from 60 to 150 feet tall with large, leathery leaves that block 80% of the sunlight.
Detailed explanation-2: -The top layer of a rainforest is called the emergent layer. This layer receives bright sunlight and plenty of rain, and is also very windy.
Detailed explanation-3: -The emergent layer has high treetops that rise above everything else. Above the canopy, this layer gets the most sunlight and the most rain, and is much windier. The tallest trees can reach heights of up to 230ft (70m).
Detailed explanation-4: -The forest floor is the lowest layer where it is dark, hot, and damp. Only two per cent of sunlight gets through the thick canopy trees and understorey plants to reach the forest floor.
